View Full Version : What kind of underwear is issued at bootcamp?
Not a deal breaker kinda question, but just a matter of curiosity that I haven't seen addressed on the forum yet. Do they issue you boxers or briefs?

Jock strap.
Then eventually they'll get mixed during laundry and you'll be wearing another recruits jock strap, enjoy!
So it's boxers then? Guess I'll have to get used to my junk tossing about while PTing then.

Well they can't be as bad as the dang boxers we got way back in the stone age. I hated those dang things and still do...

I graduated last July and we wore jock straps to "formal" PT with with the green skivvie shorts. Under your cammies you wore just the green skivvies. You will be issued whitey tightys but those are for the Service Uniform, don't get caught wearing them with cammies, "Did I tell you to wear white drawers with your cammies?" So that was Parris Island not a whole helluva long time ago. Fill out your profile too Haskett

She did up until a few years ago - for a Halloween party I wore a pair of their black silk PJ's, a red push up bra and a big set of black angel wings to a party. I told everybody that I was the secret that Vickie ain't let out yet...............her black angel.

See, this is why I hated my name being Vickie as a child. I had to deal with "Hey Victoria, what's your secret?"
But anyway, yeah I always thought that the guys had other underwear besides their skivvies, and then my boyfriend tells me that they didn't. Then he also told me that they didn't even mark their shorts, so they were basically all just wearing each other's underwear everyday. Gross. At least we got to have our own underwear and skivvies with our names on them!

One of our Bro's came back from Leave and we had to ask him about how his 'adventures' were. "They were going great until she asked why I have my name stamped on my underwear, like I was some kind of Special Ed kid!" :D

Everything we had issued to us was marked and it stayed that way all the way through the Corps we had many inspections and it better be marked,lol.:flag:

uh, white skivies and PT shorts... we were allowed to wear just the PT shorts in my platoon... however they will most likely make you wear the skivies in case they need to loan some PT shorts... hygeine.
